Psalms 18:25 Context
23I was also vpright before him: and I kept my selfe from mine iniquity. 24Therefore hath the Lord recompensed me according to my righteousnesse, according to the cleannesse of my hands in his eye-sight. 25With the mercifull thou wilt shew thy selfe mercifull, with an vpright man thou wilt shew thy selfe vpright. 26With the pure thou wilt shewe thy selfe pure, and with the froward thou wilt shew thy selfe froward. 27For thou wilt saue the afflicted people: but wilt bring downe high lookes.
